OKRA GUMBO
I got this recipe from a relative back in the early '70's we've been enjoying ever since. It won 1st place in our cooking contest at my family reunion. You may want to add a little water or chicken broth to this.

OKRA AND TOMATOES (A.K.A. OKRA GUMBO)
I havent seen too many Okra recipes on Zaar, so i decided to post my favorite. My Grandmother taught me how to make this dish when I was 11, and I've been making it ever since. Its a great along side smothered steak and mashed potatoes, or rice.

Steps:
- Fry bacon in a large skillet that can be covered, until crisp. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels. Saute onion in bacon drippings until tender. Add okra and tomatoes, stir to blend. Cover, reduce to low heat. Cook for about an hour, or until okra is tender, stirring occasionally. Do not stir too much or too briskly, because the okra will fall apart. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- **Note: Nanny diced the bacon and fried it and the onion together. My family doesn't like the bacon cooked into it because the bacon becomes soft. If you do it my way, you can sprinkle the bacon on right before serving.

EASY GUMBO (OKRA SOUP)
This is not your typical Southern gumbo. The inspiration comes from somewhere else. There are different variations of the same kind of food all over the world. This one is inspired by West African okra soup, but is also closer to the Southern gumbo variation. Serve with polenta, semolina, or even rice.
